Hi guys! I finally could test this to see if an old problem reported on bugzilla[1] was fixed now, but unfortunately it is still there. The ticket is private I guess, but basically the problem happens when bonding driver tries to print something after it had taken the write_lock (monitor functions, enslave/de-enslave), so the printk() will pass through netpoll, then on bonding again which no matter what mode you use, it will try to read_lock() the lock again. The result is a deadlock and the entire system hangs.
Does the attached patch fix this hang? Thanks! -----------------------> We should notify netconsole that bond is changing its slaves when we use active-backup mode. Signed-off-by: WANG Cong <amwang@xxxxxxxxxx> ----
